November 7-8th, 2012 in Greenville, SC
The InnoMobility 2012 Conference will bring together a global, open innovation community of diverse thought leaders exploring how evolving demographics and advancing technology lead to new high-growth mobility markets.
The Conference will showcase more than 30 business ventures that are shaping the future of mobility over the course of two days. These emerging ventures will be presented by leaders in major corporations, middle market companies, entrepreneurial businesses, and academic centers. Focus areas are innovative design and manufacturing, connectivity and mobile services, sustainable systems and clean tech, and electric vehicles and infrastructure. Last year, over 400 mobility thought leaders attended the event and we anticipate over 600 will attend this year.
The objective of the conference is to discover new business ventures and help them develop by connecting them with the resources they need to be successful. The conference is built around dynamic keynotes and high-impact venture conversations, which are a series of 8 minute, 10 slide presentations followed by a Conversation Cafe to explore how those in the audience can contribute and benefit.
As a conference attendee you will benefit by connecting with mobility thought leaders and discovering new ventures transforming the future of mobility.
